Skip, go where? All I'm saying is, by the amount of sh#t that gets tossed around on the internet, I'm a big enough boy to come to my own conclusions, right, wrong or indifferent.

Chris, Stallion, and Gil.......... you do admit there were major quality control, both in house and manufactures, issues with some of the first castings of blocks. Thus leading to a limited warranty recall on certain selected block castings? Right?

Ken, never disputed the quality issues. I asked a couple "what if" questions and never really came out and defended anyone on this issue. I just like to play "Devils Advocate" at times.

I do like to challenge the constant "dead horse beating" from time to time. but that's all in fun. I'm not hatin!

Chris my comment on "going where" was related to do you really want to open up the topic of there really being a different side on some of the previous issues. Some of them are so well documented so the "second side" really can't be a whole lot different. I take that to say I personally am full of crap(and several others) and didn't have any real issues before as the "other side" might say. That is what seems to be implied by others also in certain "camps" also. I get a little defensive when it's implied I'm a liar.

Anyway, finished a crazy morning where nothing was simple(cat with weight loss owner thought was worms had a liver tumor to be worked up, etc etc) now I'm off to hook up the trailer and go to the Southern Nationals in the 90+ degree heat! So you all can debate this the rest of the weekend.

Playing devils advocate can be fun, but some of your fellow members here on py were greatly affected financially by these issues. Some sensitivity on these issues seems to be in order.

Ken, what does the YOUR QUOTE have anything to do with this thread? I do feel bad for all parties INVOLVED but I have a different understanding then the bashers of what went on. On any threads did you here me bash anyone DIRECTLY INVOLVED. If I THOUGHT that I MIGHT have said something wrong to the DIRECTLY INVOLVED, I PMed them with an apology. The Stallion.
